Chen Lin was not sure whether there was a soul inside the sphere either.
After a moment's thought, he said, "I'm not entirely sure. It only flashed past just now, so I'll need to keep observing it to learn more. But does this thing have to stay here? Can we take it away or put it in a Storage Bag?"
"No!"
Qin Lingyu answered immediately.
Then she added, "Not only can it not be put in a Storage Bag, it can't be moved either. Last time, I tried to forcefully take it away, which made it tremble. Old Ancestor Huo sensed the aura it released, and that was what stirred his greed."
But then she remembered that Chen Lin was already a Nascent Soul Cultivator and said hesitantly, "Still, perhaps my cultivation was simply too low. With your cultivation, husband, you might be able to try."
Chen Lin considered it, then slowly shook his head.
"There's no hurry. Didn't you say it would erupt soon? Then let's wait until it finishes erupting. I'll take a look before deciding."
With something this strange, Chen Lin felt it was best to understand it thoroughly before taking action.
If he could not figure it out, there was no need to take it. Under the present circumstances, no treasure mattered. Escaping this realm took priority over everything else.
With Chen Lin present, Qin Lingyu and the others all deferred to him and offered no further objections.
"Let's go outside first. There are some things I need to tell you."
After watching for a while longer and seeing no sign that the sphere would erupt immediately, Chen Lin and the others returned to the Immortal Cave.
He then gathered everyone and told them about the impending world destruction.
Qin Lingyu and the others all paled.
